Charles Bukowski Books Overview

A large portion of Bukowski’s writing had a satirical bent to it, and though it would be a simplification to label him a satirist outright, there can be no denying that much of his fiction contains a strong element of lampoon. Whether denigrating himself or poking fun at such sacrosanct notions as god, country, and anything else associated with the American herd mentality, one cannot read Bukowski and come away without noticing the inordinate amount of tongue in his cheek. In Pulp, Bukowski sets his sights on writing itself – specifically, the more contrived conventions of genre writing.
